Teamspeak start stop script

22 Jul 2008

After my server was restarted twice by my hosting center I decided to make sure Teamspeak would start automatically. I read a few posts on how other people did it but in the end I decided that I created my own minimal script.

My two goals with this init script was:

Run the Teamspeak server as an unprivileged user.

Make sure the Teamspeak server starts up after reboot even though it wasn’t shut down properly

A little bonus was that it reuses much of the init script that is bundled with the installation
